JL did have lots of pics of his bulging biceps in that book
Hey, nothing wrong with that. I always thought BBs were a requirement for stonemasters.

Lois Rice and I met in the late 1970s when I was working as a guide for Palisades School of Mountaineering up in the Sierras. We married in October 2005, are both now retired and live in Sebastopol,California. We're both still active outdoors although arthritis has slowed us down more than we'd like to admit. Walt Vennum

Yeah, arthritis did me in, but I was getting too old for it to be fun.

I know that i am simplifying things. But, it seems like you are upset that a group that called themselves "The Stonemasters" wrote a book about themselves called "The Stonemasters" and didn't include another group of climbers.
Maybe the other group should write themselves a book.

I did Vallhalla with Tobin and Bachar, it was Tobins second time and Me and Jacks first. I did it again the next week with Erick E and Bachar, this would have been '73 or very early '74, I fell all over it, but sent. I was going on trips to the Valley as Tobins belayer and partner in crime by late 72. . .df
I wouldn't say I "sent" something that I "fell all over."

Are you kidding me? Possibly the best Supertopo and Valley thread of all time, and it can't compete with Jody's as#@&%e thread.
This is what lowering my SuperToture reading intake has cost me. I simply tired of reading about the Stonemasters and it made me miss the coolest thread ever!

Dang Warbler--you hit it out of the park:
"Several people, you included, urged me to write down my experiences and perspectives, you particularly to write my story across the sky with all my might, to paraphrase you. I feel like I already did that, back then, with guys like you and Mark and Bridwell. My story is already there in Yosemite and here in San Diego County, and in beautifully remote landscapes in Baja, for those who speak the language."
